Pretty sure like 90% of the kids at tryouts were private school kids, many are from his school, they are all in his grade. All of his 4th grade classmates seem to be signing up for 4th grade for some reason. Can you help, this is so confusing.



Your condescending tone and sarcastic approach are consistent with the holdback/double holdback parent. Another 20 year old freshman in the making.


OOOH, let's throw double hold back in there to make it sound nefarious. Dude, are you serious, you think every private school and every prefirst program participant are thinking about sports! How about education system evolving, unlike the third world government system! Oh well, tryouts are being advertised, looks like another year of the successful and growing grade based private club system. See you later.

it's actually very simple, he should sign up for the correct age as recommended by US lacrosse. Unless there's something wrong with him he will make friends on an age appropriate team. [/quote]

You need to find an age-appropriate activity, then maybe you will meet some friends.
